Arizona Democratic Rep. Raúl Grijalva has died, according to his congressional office. He was 77. The congressman died Thursday morning due to complications from cancer treatments, the office said. In April 2024, Grijalva announced he had been diagnosed with cancer and begun treatment. The diagnosis, he said at the time, was “difficult to process.”

Grijalva spent half a century in public service and represented Arizona in Congress for more than two decades.
